About Shortcrust pastry
Shortcrust pastry is a versatile dough made by combining flour, fat (typically butter or lard), a pinch of salt, and cold water. Known for its crumbly yet stable texture, it is commonly used in both savory and sweet dishes such as pies, tarts, and quiches. Originating from European cuisine, shortcrust pastry has become a foundation in baking worldwide due to its simplicity and adaptability. While delicious, it is high in calories and saturated fat because of its butter content, making it less ideal for regular consumption if you are watching your fat intake. However, its high carbohydrate content provides a quick source of energy, and using whole grain flours or plant-based fats can improve its nutritional profile. Moderation and balance are key when enjoying this rich and flavorful staple.
